2 INFOSEC Training and Education Documented Need Partnerships address long time problem NSA s Response: NIETP NIST-CNSS-NSA Linkage/Partnerships Future Initiatives

3 Let s Take Advantage of Work Already Done, and Work In Progress.

4 Many full/part-time personnel not trained for the job they hold. Self Taught..... One the Job Training..... Peer-to-peer exchange..... You Figure it out Learn by mistake Security Guides and INFOSEC Lore Conferences, Vendor, and Govt...Courses.. If funds Available

5 To Demonstrate Existence of a Career Field h 1. Distinct Body of Knowledge EDACUMS have documented h 2. Body of Literature Nat l Conference & UC-Davis Project h 3. Career Progression Already exists in several agencies Proposed in NCSC Pub #27 h4. Sufficient Numbers of Personnel (Dedicated to that Profession) OPM study nearly completed

6 INFOSEC/IA Personnel Shortfalls Many security tasks not being adequately performed due to lack of personnel, training, and tools Critical security responsibilities assigned as additional duties Lack of comprehensive, consistent training for ISSOs security engineers, certifiers, accreditors

7 NSTISSC 1993 report INFOSEC Education and Training listed in top three priorities

8 Education, training, and awareness are countermeasures that effectively reduce exposure to a variety of known risks. In order to achieve this end, it is essential to have a federal work force that is aware of, and educated about, the problems of information systems security (INFOSEC). Charles A. Hawkins, Jr. Acting Chairman, NSTISSC 25 Feb. 1993

9 Redefining Security 1994 report Uniformity in skills and knowledge taught security professionals is needed not only to ensure the quality of work, but also to foster a common understanding and implementation of security policies and procedures.

10 OTA 1994 Report To be comprehensive, however, the generally accepted practices must be defined at several levels of detail, and different sets of the standards would apply to different users and applications.

11 CONTINUED Some experts estimate that over one-half of the total financial and productivity losses in information systems is the result of human errors Information Security and Privacy in Network Environments Office of Technology Assessment. Sept. 1994

12 President s Commission on Critical Infrastructure Protection NIST, NSA, and the U.S. Department of Education work in collaboration with the private sector to develop programs for education and training of information assurance specialists and for the continuing education as technologies change. This effort should also support training the trainers to provide an adequate cadre of qualified instructors to teach technicians. Critical Foundations: Protecting America s Infrastructures.. The report of the President s commission on Critical Infrastructure Protection. Oct., P71. (

13 Mission Be a leading advocate for improving information system security (INFOSEC) education and training nationwide.

35 ACADEMIA

36 Emerging Role of Academia The number of colleges teaching INFOSEC is increasing. Integrated & stand alone courses. Whole degree programs. Good geo-locations.

37 The Not So Good News* Today there are only four declared, dedicated computer security research centers in degree granting departments at universities in the United States Over the past five years, approximately 5,500 PhDs in computer science and engineering were awarded by universities in the US. Only 16 of those were awarded for security-related research at these major centers (only 8 of the 16 were U.S. Nationals) Dr. Eugene Spafford Testimony to House Science Comm. Feb. 11, 1997

38 Defending America s Cyberspace In developing the Federal Cyber Service initiative, we can leverage existing Federal education, training and awareness programs. In education, the NSA has a program to designate universities as Centers of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education based on established criteria rooted in the National Security Telecommunications and Information Systems Security Committee (NSTISSC) training standards.

39 Partnerships with Academia Centers of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education Reducing the vulnerability of our NII by promoting higher education in information assurance, and producing a growing number of professionals with IA expertise in various disciplines.

40 Centers Of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (Graduate and Undergraduate Levels) Criteria for Measurement 1. Use of NSTISSC Training Standards 2. I A treated as multidisciplinary 3. Demonstration of use of IA within the university 4. Encourages research in IA 5. IA curriculum reaches beyond normal geographic borders 6. Faculty active in IA research and practice 7. State of the art IA reference system/materials 8. Declared concentrations in IA 9. Declared center for I A education 10. More than one faculty member
